Expressive Words

The expressive words project was one of the easier projects in my opinion. I really enjoyed manipulating the words in my project until I was content. 

For the first part of my project, the first word that I chose for this project is the word donut. I decided to turn the letter o and turn it into a donut by putting another o inside the o. 




For the second part of my project, I decided to choose the word animal. The first two letters and the last letter of the animal stayed the same, so I can change the rest of the letters while still being able to understand what the word is. Then the letter I got turned upside down into the ! sign. The m was actually ^ grouped together with another ^ in order for it to look like an m. For the final a in the word animal, I decided to just use the @ symbol.  




For the third part of my project, I decided to choose the word stretch. For this word, obviously, I stretched out the letters as far as I possibly could. 




For the fourth part of this project, I decided to choose the word skydive. I originally just put the letters starting from the top left to the bottom right without anything else. However, before starting this blogger, I decided to rotate all the letters except the s and the e. This is because when you actually skydive, you don't just stay in the same position, you can move and rotate a little bit. The s and e in my mind actually mean the jumping (s) and landing (e) from skydiving. 



For the final part of the project, I decided to choose the word square. This design of my word you did not seem to understand. So, I will explain to you what my process was while doing this. I decided on the word square because, obviously, I would make a square. However, I thought that maybe people wouldn't see the square that I saw when I made it. So, I made the decision to make those lines in order to make it easier for the viewer to see what I was seeing when I was making this design. I am not making another version of this same word because my design looks fine to me. Overall, I enjoyed doing this project and would do it again.

Self-portrait in Color Blogger

Image
This is the self portrait in color. I decided to make a piranha plant from Super Mario. The image below this was my inspiration for my work: I didn't want to just copy it completely. So, I decided to put my actual portrait instead of the piranha at the top and bottom right where the pipes are. I decided that as a final touch I would also put a question block from Super Mario. I thought it was a nice touch since there was a bunch of space above the three pipes with my portrait.  After the review, I made some changes to the self-portrait and now it looks like this:  I decided to make the background sky blue because to me it fits with the overall theme of the portrait in color. I added two bricks on the side of the question block because in the Super Mario games you can find two bricks and a question block in the middle in that order. I added coins because they can be found in that order as well. Finally, I added a star on the top of the middle pipe because the star is the best i...

Robot Final

Image
 This is my Robot Final Blogger.  Here is the image of my robot draft: Most of the process of creating this robot wasn't too difficult. I just had to find images online and put them together to make a cool robot. The most difficult part in the creation of this robot was definitely the display on the screen. I had to look for an image of a display on a flat screen tv,  replace the person with my robot, shrink it and make it fit on screen on the old tv. Despite this, it was fun to do this part of the robot project.  This is the image of my robot final:  This part of the project was definitely more difficult compared to creating the draft. I originally wanted to put this root in an underwater cave, but I realized that a laboratory is also a perfectly good setting for my robot. The most difficult part of the project by far was creating a shadow for the robot. The method you showed was in class to create a shadow works, but it is tedious way to do it.  Instead, ...
